John Boyega Cautions Star Wars Fans To Stop Harassing The Cast

Star Wars actor John Boyega has urged fans to stop harassing the cast on social media. His comments came after two co-stars, Daisy Ridley and Kelly Marie Tran, quit Instagram after receiving online abuse.

The actor, who plays Finn, tweeted: "If you don't like Star Wars or the characters, understand that there are decisions makers [sic] and harassing the actors/actresses will do nothing." He then appeared to say he was leaving the site, telling followers: "See ya!"

Fans of the sci-fi series have been vocal about recent films' storylines, often directing their views at Boyega. The London-born actor, who appeared in The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi, told followers: "You're not entitled to politeness when your approach is rude. Even if you paid for a ticket!"
